"Now more than ever we need to come together and focus on the future of the greatest industry in the world, the mortgage banking industry."

"It is especially important, given the current state of the market that the mortgage industry gather together for dialogue and to hear the best and the brightest on topics that can change the strategy and operating objectives of companies, no matter their size. The pace of change in our business is accelerating. Industry waters are turbulent. Winners in the mortgage industry will be those who avail themselves of the greatest opportunities to grow and develop both themselves and their staffs. MBA’s 94th Annual Convention and Expo is such an opportunity. Now more than ever we need to come together and focus on the future of the greatest industry in the world, the mortgage banking industry."

"MBA’s 94th Annual Convention & Expo is just much too expensive to miss."

"As a veteran of 27 of the last 30 MBA Annual Conventions, I look forward to Boston. With the storms "in the water" (as we in hurricane country say), it is more important than ever to get into those vital conversations about the industry that make up the bulk of my annual learning experience at the "National."

I often wander into meetings to hear experts, I usually attend interesting open committee meetings, but, most of all, I reconnect with all of those experts from every state who come to learn. 

My goal at every MBA Annual Convention & Expo is to find the idea that "pays for the trip."  Sometimes the idea comes from an industry affiliate, often from an associate or competitor and more frequently than one might imagine that vital idea is shared between other people while I am privileged to be at the table during dinner.
